An Orvis 4-weight outfit was won by Bob DeRoss, and Les Junge won a Wheatly fly box. Bulletin editing was taken up by Ken Buscho assisted by laser printer and Art Feruzzi. Dale Lackey donated a guided trip, won by Jack Giles. For the first time, assignments for lining up guest speakers and workshops were printed in the bulletin. This was probably also the last time anyone read the list. Gary Bell was promoted from president to Burney Fishmaster. There were also shad and bass fishouts plus expeditions to Truckee, Redondo and Bodega. Chickens breathed a sigh of relief as "Doc" Nelson demonstrated his all-synthetic "Aztec flies", though none survived the Gazos Creek picnic. Don Slaiter started the "bottle raffle", where you can reduce your odds of winning to something you don't want to zero.
Patient work begun three years ago by Bill Fritsche, Frank Cochrane, and Gordon Burnett on a way to tie flies with one hand (for a partially paralyzed PFF friend) was documented in the United Fly Tiers Round Table during the latter part of 1985. Ken Eugene supplied the photos for the article.
Winner of the biggest Christmas Raffle prize ever, a 15.5 foot Coleman Scanoe, was Richard Holubek. That helped Richard offset the increased license fee of $18.00. Gary Bell was not pleased when his President's message was ghost-written by "Uncle Zeke", and thereafter got his messages to the bulletin editor on time.
By March, Gary and Art had located a Mackintosh Computer and a laser printer, and took over bulletin operations. There were some good-looking bulletins, but oh, boy! were they ever a lot of work.
Conservation issues were prominent. Wild trout surveys, CSPA, and upcoming Natioal Forest plans were discussed. Jack Oakley and Jerry Sward continued their casting program.
